Graphic Novels and Comics Day

April's TAG meeting was the bomb!  Steve, the owner of The Collector's Edge store in Bay View, paid us a visit.  His deep knowledge of all things comic was "the beast".  Despite all our questions about Spiderman, the Hulk, Captain America, Captain Marvel, the Flash, Wolverine, Thor, and many others, we were unable to stump Steve.  He is "the man" and we thank him for taking time out of his busy day to teach us all about graphic novels and comics.

 

TAG members also impressed Steve with answers to his trivia questions, and he rewarded them well with packages of comics. NICE!  Thanks again, Steve for a super day! :>

Top Chefs Compete in "Iron Chef" Competition

At the March meeting of the Teen Advisory Group, our Top Chefs competed in an "Iron Chef" competition.  With a limited amount of time, they dolloped, dabbled, and decorated, with scrumptious results.

Way to "roll with it" guys!

Briana and Kaylee made "grate" things with cheese.

YUM!
The creme de la creme!

Briana and Kaylee really "took the cake".

 

Sweet!

The Final Presentation

A Very Tough Decision!  Thanks for Judging, Marcia!

Miss Mary Made a Marvelous Mario!

TAG Duct Tape Craft Day

TAG OFF THE HOOK WITH DUCT TAPE

 

It was a double bomb day with duct tape for the February TAG meeting.  Not only did some TAG member bring in their own fabulous creations, but everyone made something choice by the end of the hour.  Miss Mary showed us the ropes, and we made a book weight, a bookmark, and other crafts.  Other creations admired by all: a purse, wallets, a box, a headband, bracelets, and other unnamed items.

 

 

A Hobbit Happening!

It was a Hobbit Happening!

Except for having big, hairy feet, it might be "sweet" to be a hobbit.  We visited Bilbo's hobbit hole and joined in hobbit cameraderie at the last TAG meeting.  After eating sweet hobbit food like scones, cakes, and pies, we wrote in Elvish and made shields. Later we played hobbit party games like "Minute to Win It". 

Death by Chocolate Party

Whodunnit?  Someone committed a crime, and someone experienced DEATH BY CHOCOLATE!  At our last meeting our brave group pounced on the evidence, committing themselves to horribly tedious research.  They courageously tasted each kind of chocolate to see who among them knew too much, the person who had guilt "all over her face"!  (Or was it just chocolate?)  Brianna was the murderer, so she was condemned to eat all the chocolate in one hour.  Luckily, she shared.
